Examples
The following code example detects a click on the document, finds the element, and uses ScrollIntoView to align the element with the top of the Web page.
private void Document_Click(Object sender, HtmlElementEventArgs e)
{
if (webBrowser1.Document != null)
{
HtmlElement elem = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementFromPoint(e.ClientMousePosition);
elem.ScrollIntoView(true);
}
}
Private Sub Document_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As HtmlElementEventArgs)
If (WebBrowser1.Document IsNot Nothing) Then
Dim Elem As HtmlElement = WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementFromPoint(e.ClientMousePosition)
Elem.ScrollIntoView(True)
End If
End Sub
Remarks
GetElementFromPoint uses client coordinates, in which the upper-left corner of the document is assigned the value (0,0). Client coordinates for the current position of the cursor can be obtained using the Position property.
